This one intrigued me in the challenge. I liked it's starkness and lack of warmth. I gave it an 8.

Wow. The pears in the bowl almost look bronzed with the color tone you've selected and the light sheen. Kind of neat in a way. Good luck!

I think these pears have a lot of character, colour and texture that are lost in this black and white presentation. The bowl fares well in monochrome, but I think the pears are suffering as their warmth and personality are muted by the monochromatic colouring.

A beautiful use of duotone. Wonderful lighting, comp & detail. I'd pick this as Top 10 for sure.
